How to remove Facebook Contacts & Birthdays from Calendar in Windows 10

If you are using a Microsoft Account to sign in to your Windows 10 and you have the Facebook app installed on your Windows 10 PC or Windows 10 Mobile phone, then if you open the Calendar app, you would find it cluttered with events and birthdays every day. Now, this makes no real sense to me, as almost every day I had a blue dot informing me that it was either some one’s birthday or some event taking place. This happens because we have many Facebook Friends and as a result, we end up with many birthdays. Plus I did not like the fact that the Contact details of my Facebook Friends were cluttering up my list on my Windows Phone.
